Microfinance Growth Facility (MiGroF)

The main objective of this Facility is intended to facilitate sustained growth of micro and small enterprises in light of the contraction of international financing sources due to the global financial crisis. This facility seeks to partially compensate for the shortfall from the reduction of domestic and external sources of funding that MFIs are facing in the LAC region. The Facility will suply eligible MFIs and MIVs with medium and long term senior and subordinated loans, which in turn will be on-lent to thousands of micro and small enterprises.
